Gates of Delirium?? I mean, cmon! Underrated and brilliant. Even without Wakeman.

**Segue Myles** · May 5, 2016

Agreed. The second side is perhaps the weakest of the classic Yes albums (depending on your interest in Tales), but Gates is a beauty.

But it always comes off as more Tolkien than Tolstoy, even though I know it's based on War And Peace.

**Wil1972** · May 5, 2016

Well I do like Sound Chaser too. To be Over is just okay.

**Union 5-3992** · May 5, 2016

117 Grace For Drowning - Steven Wilson

A really fantastic record that almost gets eclipsed by his later two releases now

**Segue Myles** · May 5, 2016

I really like side 2 as well. But it was the least satisfying side to any Yes album since the first two records. Although it's worth noting I think a lot less of Fragile than most fans.

**Blue J** · May 5, 2016

It also took me awhile to warm up to the second side of Relayer, but I do like it quite well now.

**Segue Myles** · May 5, 2016

I have often wondered what a second album with that lineup could have produced. They were so close to perfection on Relayer, a second record with that chemistry could have been mind blowing. What we got instead was Going For The One...so either way WIN WIN!

**Blue J** · May 5, 2016

Yeah, Moraz lent such a different sound to them than what Rick Wakeman offered- but it still worked really well, I think.

Just for fun- some live footage of this lineup of the band, doing The Gates of Delirium, in 1975:

**Wil1972** · May 5, 2016

I wanted a 2nd album with that line up as well. I think I read that Moraz was a part of some of the early rehearsals for GFTO, but I also seem to remember reading that they were taking too long between the albums because they all took a break and did solo projects, so Moraz left. So I am not sure which is accurate. I think wanting Wakeman back played a part in it as well.

Edited May 5, 2016 by Wil1972

**Blue J** · May 5, 2016

^ Interesting; I didn't know that.

It was about two and a half years between the releases of those two records, which was certainly a long time, back then. And yes, Jon Anderson's Olias of Sunhillow was made and released during the interim, as well as Chris Squire's first one.

117) Crack the Sky - Crack the Sky (ReRushed)

This album is an example of how lists expose me to new music. I discovered Crack the Sky after reading Rolling Stone magazine's top Prog albums list. It was low in the rankings, but I never heard it, so I seeked it out. It impressed me on first listen and has held up ever since. Crack the Sky is band that, if things unfolded differently, might have gone on to bigger things. American Prog bands are not as resilient or enduring as their cousins across the pond. I give them props for still playing and recording.

**Wil1972** · May 5, 2016

From the Rhino essay accompanying Going for the One:

When they convened to work on GFTO, "Moraz's melodic ideas were rejected by his colleagues ... Moraz felt that band manager Brian Lane had orchestrated the lucrative return of ... Rick Wakeman. But Jon Anderson reflects that becoming a star overnight simply went to Moraz's head and he "thought he could do whatever he liked". He couldn't.

One of my favorite prog albums, with Dave Lawson's great Bowie-like vocals ... There is no guitar, but I love it just the same - maybe even more because it is not bogged down by folksy or out of place jazzy guitar that could take away the vibe for me ..

I should have put this higher, but, here it is

Plus, very cool Roger Dean cover art

123) Jurassic Shift - Ozric Tentacles (bean-tor)

Undeniably progressive as far as I’m concerned, the Ozric Tentacles are all about experimentation. Their complex arrangements feature unusual and changing time signatures, and incorporate exotic instruments into elements of space rock, psychedelia, jazz fusion...and the list goes on. There’s a lot to dig into, and this album is no exception; when contemplating their catalogue, I chose it for its significance in terms of its success in the UK charts.

Great call. I was going to drop Live Underslunky in at some point. JS is definitely their top studio release.

**bean-tor** · May 6, 2016

Thanks! And I see no reason that both cannot be listed :)
